I am trying to figure out if these parts I want to buy are genuine OEM or knockoffs, if anyone familiar with the version of pads they are selling and headband pads can chime in and tell me these are OEM or not OEM
Ok so it has been 6 years since this post, if there is another revision of the earpads (it seems from what I can find there very well may be, looking at this video from 2018 )I've included pictures of my old HD800 Earpads which fit back into the HD800 perfectly, and a picture of the new HD800 Earpads, the new HD800 Earpads plastic white-ish coloured membrane is too tight to fit on to the HD800's, as explained in my earlier post.
Sennheiser are aware of this problem, and are working to resolve it.
My fix is for anyone who happens to get these new pads in the meantime with the over-tight plastic membrane, that won't allow the new HD800 earpads to fit on to their HD800's.
Best wishes,
Paul.
